Turning to an old retro style and creating an attractive and elegant wedding theme is always a great way to make your wedding day memorable.</p> <p>For a vintage wedding, first you need to decide which era you would like to follow. &nbsp;A retro styled 50&rsquo;s vintage wedding brings a sense of glamour, traditional style and classiness with it. &nbsp;</p> <p><strong>1. Venue &amp; decorations</strong></p> <p>Use popular flowers like peonies. &nbsp;Have fun -- put a soda fountain near the dessert section and car-decorations from the 1950s to transform your venue into a perfect retro destination. &nbsp;Let your guests know about the theme so that they can dress appropriately.</p> <p><strong>2. Retro wedding dress.</strong></p> <p>Pack in the vibrant style of the 50&rsquo;s with simple but elegantly-cut short dresses with volume and clean lines made from exotic silks with intricate lace detailing. Headpieces, veils, beads and jewelry details can help in completing your retro look.</p> <p><strong>3. Music.</strong></p> <p>Don&rsquo;t overlook the music &ndash; play energetic retro rock. Turn to Bill Haley, Elvis Presley, and Buddy Holly. &nbsp;There are great upbeat songs to choose from in the 50&rsquo;s era for your first dance song.</p> <p>Bring the 50s energy to your wedding and enjoy an unusual, fun vintage wedding.</p> <p><em style="color: #10232d; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Bitstream Vera Sans, DejaVu Sans, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 21px; text-align: left; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;">Kate Wilson is a blogger at <a href="http://www.weddingclan.com">WeddingClan</a>, a question and answer site for weddings.</em></p> </p> <p><a href="http://blog.shinyorb.com/go-retro-50s-style-vintage-wedding">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://blog.shinyorb.com/go-retro-50s-style-vintage-wedding#comment">Leave a comment&nbsp;&nbsp;&raquo;</a> </p> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/qAR2uOd9S1JbBwKM5kIf_gi6IHk/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/qAR2uOd9S1JbBwKM5kIf_gi6IHk/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/qAR2uOd9S1JbBwKM5kIf_gi6IHk/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/qAR2uOd9S1JbBwKM5kIf_gi6IHk/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ShinyOrb/~4/umL0tJrCGJU" height="1" width="1"/> http://files.posterous.com/user_profile_pics/794069/coldstone.jpg http://posterous.com/users/4aAQgpUNyURH Jennifer Chin, Elizabeth Yin Jennifer + Elizabeth Jennifer Chin, Elizabeth Yin http://blog.shinyorb.com/go-retro-50s-style-vintage-wedding Tue, 20 Sep 2011 11:00:00 -0700 http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ShinyOrb/~3/GtIWhMOQs9o/69844539 http://blog.shinyorb.com/69844539 <p> <p>By Elizabeth</p> <p>Time for some fall wedding invitation inspiration. &nbsp;Our friends at <a href="http://minted.com">Minted.com</a>,&nbsp;an online wedding stationery store, share with us some of their favorite wedding invitations for the fall. &nbsp;</p> <p><div class='p_embed p_image_embed'> <a href="http://getfile3.posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/temp-2011-09-18/tpklCpdxBdzcJkJypIFokiwCfnpzAHchqFjpieIztcDyBfgFmzbsjIfImsIu/invites_2.png.scaled1000.png"><img alt="Invites_2" height="462" src="http://getfile0.posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/temp-2011-09-18/tpklCpdxBdzcJkJypIFokiwCfnpzAHchqFjpieIztcDyBfgFmzbsjIfImsIu/invites_2.png.scaled500.png" width="500" /></a> </div> </p> <p><span style="font-size: x-small;">(Courtesy of <a href="http://www.minted.com/customizer/sku/MIN-FIR-INV">cadance paige design</a>, <a href="http://www.minted.com/customizer/sku/MIN-CLV-INV">love letters</a>, <a href="http://www.minted.com/customizer/sku/MIN-BEU-INV">design lotus</a>, <a href="http://www.minted.com/customizer/sku/MIN-FAI-INV">pottsdesign</a>, <a href="http://www.minted.com/customizer/sku/MIN-HAU-INV">oscar &amp; emma</a>, and <a href="http://www.minted.com/customizer/sku/MIN-AQ1-INV">paper plains</a>)&nbsp;</span></p> <p>These invitations were designed by independent&nbsp;graphic designers from all over the world. &nbsp;If spring and summer brought us upbeat bright colors, in style for the fall are elegant darker colors with artistic maple leaf backgrounds. &nbsp;</p> <p>What do you think of these designs?

The reception dress should be just as important as the wedding dress, don't you think? After all, the reception will be going all night, people will be taking tons of pictures, and as the bride, it's another opportunity to stand out and be the center of attention. :)</p> <p>Me, personally, I'm a fan of bright, vivid colors when it comes to evening gowns. I love how <a href="http://www.shinyorb.com/public/nf2211/?b=0129">Tony Bowls dresses</a> are so elegant and so dazzling at the same time. These floor length evening gowns look spectacular. I have to admit that dresses from the Tony Bowls Collection can cost a pretty penny, but that pretty penny sure gets you a pretty dress! What's your favorite Tony Bowls dress?</p> </p> <p><a href="http://blog.shinyorb.com/tony-bowls-dresses-perfect-for-wedding-recept">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://blog.shinyorb.com/tony-bowls-dresses-perfect-for-wedding-recept#comment">Leave a comment&nbsp;&nbsp;&raquo;</a> </p> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/KvE8pOhJXrsg5P3lkKSwkeJXkDI/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/KvE8pOhJXrsg5P3lkKSwkeJXkDI/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/KvE8pOhJXrsg5P3lkKSwkeJXkDI/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/KvE8pOhJXrsg5P3lkKSwkeJXkDI/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ShinyOrb/~4/iUzOn_TgHi4" height="1" width="1"/> http://files.posterous.com/user_profile_pics/794069/coldstone.jpg http://posterous.com/users/4aAQgpUNyURH Jennifer Chin, Elizabeth Yin Jennifer + Elizabeth Jennifer Chin, Elizabeth Yin http://blog.shinyorb.com/tony-bowls-dresses-perfect-for-wedding-recept Mon, 02 May 2011 10:00:00 -0700 http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ShinyOrb/~3/8bw9_IP82nE/disneys-princess-flower-girl-dresses http://blog.shinyorb.com/disneys-princess-flower-girl-dresses <p> <p><a href="http://www.shinyorb.com/flower-girl-dress/Disney-s-Princess-Blossoms-Style-No--KB-A2872_98693/?b=0128"><img title="Disney's Princess Blossoms Style No. KB-A2872" src="http://static.dressmobimages.info/September__2010/98693-HOB-20100913.jpg" alt="Disney's Princess Blossoms Style No. KB-A2872" /></a> <a href="http://www.shinyorb.com/flower-girl-dress/Disney-s-Princess-Blossoms-Style-No--KB-A2870_98695/?b=0128"><img title="Disney's Princess Blossoms Style No. KB-A2870" src="http://static.dressmobimages.info/September__2010/98695-HOB-20100913.jpg" alt="Disney's Princess Blossoms Style No. KB-A2870" /></a> <a href="http://www.shinyorb.com/flower-girl-dress/Disney-s-Princess-Blossoms-Style-No--KB-A2871_98696/?b=0128"><img title="Disney's Princess Blossoms Style No. KB-A2871" src="http://static1.dressmobimages.info/September__2010/98696-HOB-20100913.jpg" alt="Disney's Princess Blossoms Style No. KB-A2871" /></a> <a href="http://www.shinyorb.com/flower-girl-dress/Disney-s-Princess-Blossoms-Style-No--KB-B2865_98697/?b=0128"><img title="Disney's Princess Blossoms Style No. KB-B2865" src="http://static.dressmobimages.info/September__2010/98697-HOB-20100913.jpg" alt="Disney's Princess Blossoms Style No. KB-B2865" /></a> <a href="http://www.shinyorb.com/flower-girl-dress/Disney-s-Princess-Blossoms-Style-No--KB-C2863_98698/?b=0128"><img title="Disney's Princess Blossoms Style No. KB-C2863" src="http://static1.dressmobimages.info/September__2010/98698-HOB-20100913.jpg" alt="Disney's Princess Blossoms Style No. KB-C2863" /></a> <a href="http://www.shinyorb.com/flower-girl-dress/Disney-s-Princess-Blossoms-Style-No--KB-J2873_98699/?b=0128"><img title="Disney's Princess Blossoms Style No. KB-J2873" src="http://static.dressmobimages.info/September__2010/98699-HOB-20100913.jpg" alt="Disney's Princess Blossoms Style No. KB-J2873" /></a></p> <p>By Jennifer</p> <p>Which little girl doesn't dream about being a princess? After seeing a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wedding_of_Prince_William_and_Catherine_Middleton">real royal wedding</a> last Friday, I'm sure little girls everywhere have started dreaming of marrying a prince. For now, though, I came across these adorable <a href="http://www.shinyorb.com/r/flower-girl-dresses/?b=0128">flower girl dresses</a> from the Disney Princess collection.

I am quite excited to showcase a huge selection of wedding dresses handpicked by Eileen for <a href="http://www.shinyorb.com/public/iu1890/?b=0124">Eileen's Boudoir</a>. I found Eileen's dressing room on the list of <a href="http://www.shinyorb.com/rooms/?b=0124">featured dressing rooms</a> and her room does not disappoint. I love that her wedding dress picks showcase a wide choice of big skirts. I had no idea that they came is so many styles. There's big and layered, big and poofy, big and lacy, big and satiny, big and everything.

Rather than suggesting a good hair salon, Betterfly tells you the best stylist! Instead of suggesting a fun gym, Betterfly tells you exactly which trainer you should go to.</div> <p /> <div><strong>Neat -- How, when, why did you start Betterfly?</strong>&nbsp;</div> <p /> <div>Betterfly was founded by Joshua Schwadron to help him find the right people as he worked towards his own personal betterment goals. &nbsp;The site was launched in May of 2010, and recent investors include some of the Groupon founders.</div> <p /> <p /> <div><strong>So our brides are probably wondering, "What are some cool and unique wedding-related services that Betterists are currently offering on your site?"</strong></div> <p /> <div>There are literally thousands of Betterists who offer services related to helping a bride get ready for her wedding day. Whether they're looking for a <a href="http://betterfly.com/category/make-up">makeup artist</a>, <a href="http://betterfly.com/category/hair-styling">hair stylist</a>, or <a href="http://betterfly.com/category/dance">dance teacher</a>, Betterfly enables brides (and grooms) to search by location, price, specialty, availability and more.</div> </div> <p style="line-height: normal;

For today's inspiration board, I took a page from one bride's choice of <a href="http://www.shinyorb.com/public/hc1688/?b=0122">inexpensive tea length bridesmaid dresses</a>. I love the yellow dress Kristin Davis is wearing. That would make a fabulous bridesmaid dress. All of the dresses here just happen to be 50% off right now and are way under $100 each!

Today I'm featuring a dressing room that loves the <a href="http://www.shinyorb.com/public/gm1401/?b=0118">cinched waist</a>. Many of the dresses feature different colored sashes to emphasize the waist while others use asymmetric ruching or a fancy rosette. Are you a fan of the single color bridesmaid dress or the color accented look?</p> </p> <p><a href="http://blog.shinyorb.com/cinched-waist-dresses">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://blog.shinyorb.com/cinched-waist-dresses#comment">Leave a comment&nbsp;&nbsp;&raquo;</a> </p> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/LdbF9O_CIfEDciqP2ipapU7Zp1Q/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/LdbF9O_CIfEDciqP2ipapU7Zp1Q/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/LdbF9O_CIfEDciqP2ipapU7Zp1Q/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/LdbF9O_CIfEDciqP2ipapU7Zp1Q/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ShinyOrb/~4/y5kYbAPlUdk" height="1" width="1"/> http://files.posterous.com/user_profile_pics/794069/coldstone.jpg http://posterous.com/users/4aAQgpUNyURH Jennifer Chin, Elizabeth Yin Jennifer + Elizabeth Jennifer Chin, Elizabeth Yin http://blog.shinyorb.com/cinched-waist-dresses Mon, 31 Jan 2011 07:44:00 -0800 http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ShinyOrb/~3/BmuDLgYqGcA/gowns-for-mother-of-the-bride http://blog.shinyorb.com/gowns-for-mother-of-the-bride <p> <table border="0" height="600" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: none; line-height: 0px;" width="501"> <tr style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: none;"> <td rowspan="2" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: none;" colspan="2"><a href="http://www.shinyorb.com/mother-of-the-bride-dress/A-line-Tea-length-Elastic-Woven-Satin-Chiffon-Mother-of-the-Bride-Dress--MMWD010-_49515/?b=0117"> <img title="A-line Tea-length Elastic Woven Satin Chiffon Mother of the Bride Dress (MMWD010)" src="http://static.shinyorb.com/img/blog/gowns-mob/A-line-Tea-length-Elastic-Woven-Satin-Chiffon-Mother-of-the-Bride-Dress-(MMWD010).jpg" border="0" height="362" alt="A-line Tea-length Elastic Woven Satin Chiffon Mother of the Bride Dress (MMWD010)" width="250" /></a></td> <td style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: none;"><a href="http://www.shinyorb.com/mother-of-the-bride-dress/Cameron-Blake-Dress-19626_46248/?b=0117"> <img title="Cameron Blake Dress 19626" src="http://static.shinyorb.com/img/blog/gowns-mob/Cameron-Blake-Dress-19626.jpg" border="0" height="249" alt="Cameron Blake Dress 19626" width="132" /></a></td> <td style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: none;"><a href="http://www.shinyorb.com/mother-of-the-bride-dress/Val-Stefani-Celebrations-Dress-MB7033_102862/?b=0117"> <img title="Val Stefani Celebrations Dress MB7033" src="http://static.shinyorb.com/img/blog/gowns-mob/Val-Stefani-Celebrations-Dress-MB7033.jpg" border="0" height="249" alt="Val Stefani Celebrations Dress MB7033" width="118" /></a></td> <td style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: none;"><img src="http://static.shinyorb.com/img/blog/gowns-mob/spacer.gif" height="249" alt="" width="1" /></td> </tr> <tr style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: none;"> <td rowspan="2" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: none;" colspan="2"><a href="http://www.shinyorb.com/mother-of-the-bride-dress/Cameron-Blake-Dress-110604_50706/?b=0117"> <img title="Cameron Blake Dress 110604" src="http://static.shinyorb.com/img/blog/gowns-mob/Cameron-Blake-Dress-110604.jpg" border="0" height="351" alt="Cameron Blake Dress 110604" width="250" /></a></td> <td style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: none;"><img src="http://static.shinyorb.com/img/blog/gowns-mob/spacer.gif" height="113" alt="" width="1" /></td> </tr> <tr style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: none;"> <td style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: none;"><a href="http://www.shinyorb.com/mother-of-the-bride-dress/La-Belle-Style-No--17626_93498/?b=0117"> <img title="La Belle Style No. 17626" src="http://static.shinyorb.com/img/blog/gowns-mob/La-Belle-Style-No.-17626.jpg" border="0" height="238" alt="La Belle Style No. 17626" width="104" /></a></td> <td style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: none;"><a href="http://www.shinyorb.com/mother-of-the-bride-dress/Social-Occasions-Dress-210863_75726/?b=0117"> <img title="Social Occasions Dress 210863" src="http://static.shinyorb.com/img/blog/gowns-mob/Social-Occasions-Dress-210863.jpg" border="0" height="238" alt="Social Occasions Dress 210863" width="146" /></a></td> <td style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: none;"><img src="http://static.shinyorb.com/img/blog/gowns-mob/spacer.gif" height="238" alt="" width="1" /></td> </tr> </table> <p>By Jennifer</p> <p>A bride on Shiny Orb has been diligently putting together a selection of gowns for the Mother of the Bride.
